Misión En París / Mission in Paris
VUELVE EL CAPITÁN ALATRISTE
La nueva y esperada entrega de la serie de novelas de aventuras que cambió la forma de leer y entender el Siglo de Oro
«Me gusta Pérez-Reverte, me recuerda a Dumas y Salgari». -Umberto Eco
«Sonaba la medianoche en los relojes de París cuando entraron por la puerta de Saint-Jacques cuatro jinetes tan seguros de sí mismos como el trote firme de sus caballos». Es medianoche. Íñigo Balboa, que forma parte de los Correos Reales del rey católico, aguarda expectante la llegada del capitán Alatriste, de Francisco de Quevedo y de Sebastián Copons a París, donde se encuentra para entregar unos despachos al conde de Guadalmedina. Hace casi un año que no se reúnen, cuando acabó la arriesgada encomienda que tuvieron que afrontar en Venecia. Son tiempos complejos para Francia: desde hace unos meses, los hugonotes de La Rochela, con apoyo inglés, están viviendo un duro asedio por parte de las fuerzas francesas a las órdenes del cardenal Richelieu. Por mediación de Quevedo, Alatriste y sus amigos se ven envueltos en una peligrosa misión secreta ideada por el conde-duque de Olivares. Esta vez el objetivo es de tal magnitud, que la aventura a la que se enfrentan podría cambiar para siempre el curso de los acontecimientos. ENGLISH DESCRIPTION CAPTAIN ALATRISTE IS BACK. The latest and long-awaited instalment in the adventure series that changed the way we read and understand the Spanish Golden Age. "I like Pérez-Reverte. He reminds me of Dumas and Salgari." --Umberto Eco "It rang midnight around Paris when four riders crossed the Port Saint-Jacques, so sure of themselves, as their horses' trot was firm." It is midnight. Íñigo Balboa, part of the Royal Couriers of the Catholic king, awaits impatiently for Captain Alatriste, Francisco de Quevedo, and Sebastián Copons to arrive in Paris, where he is now delivering dispatches to the Count of Guadalmedina. It has been almost a year since they last saw each other, when that risky assignment in Venice came to an end. These are difficult times for France: it's been months since, with some English support, the Huguenots at La Rochelle endure a terrible siege by French forces under the command of Cardenal Richelieu. By Quevedo's mediation, Alatriste and his friends get involved in a dangerous secret mission planed by the Count-Duke of Olivares. This time, their purpose is of such magnitude, that the adventure ahead of them could potentially change the course of history forever. -

Get ready for the sequel to the New York Times bestselling hilarious fantasy adventure in the new series from the author of the Story Thieves. You were warned to stay away from THE DRAGON'S APPRENTICE. It was forbidden for a good reason, as it told the story of a village girl named Ciara finding her own book of magic and learning spells from a dragon of all things. These are dangerous ideas, and no one should be allowed to see them. Fortunately, Ciara's story didn't end there, or she might have doomed us all.

The prince, like his father the Emperor, is a powerful magic-user. And Aiden uses his power to keep us safe from strange, forbidden books.

One on One Discipleship: 52 discipleship lessons designed to help disciples make disciples of Jesus
"Go and make disciples" is one of Jesus's greatest commandments (Matthew 28:19-20). How do you know if you are truly making disciples? Jesus' discipleship strategy turned the world upside down (Acts 17:6). While Jesus ministered to the crowds, the Scriptures show us He spent the majority of His time in ministry, training 12 disciples while taking 3 of them a little deeper in prayer and ministry and 1 even deeper. One-on-One Discipleship: 52 Lessons Designed to Help Disciples Make Disciples of Jesus was written with that in mind. The discipleship strategy is simple. This interactive workbook is designed to be used by two believers intentionally discipling one another over the course of a year by developing a weekly routine using Scripture, memorization, prayer, accountability, conversation, and fellowship. With sections on crucial directions, essential disciplines, and foundational doctrines, you'll be well-equipped to grow spiritually and walk out your faith in Christ with another disciple. Jesus wants us to be disciples and make disciples. Truthfully, we aren't being disciples until we are making disciples. The commitment and process can be challenging but doable and fulfilling. Whether you're a new believer or have been saved for thirty years, this discipleship process will help you put your faith into practice while growing with another believer in Christ. Start making disciples today and do as the Apostle Paul said, "And the things you have heard me say in the presence of many witnesses entrust to reliable people who will also be qualified to teach others" (2 Timothy 2:2).

Mientras el país llora su pérdida, su sobrina Malena, que llevaba dieciséis años sin dirigirle la palabra, se ve obligada a regresar a Madrid y hacer frente al recuerdo de alguien a quien nunca ha podido perdonar. UNA MUJER ODIADA POR SU ÚNICA FAMILIA
A ojos del público, Ágata fue un icono. Para Malena, en cambio, fue una mujer egocéntrica y cruel, obsesionada con su imagen y su carrera. Por eso, en cuanto tuvo la oportunidad, huyó de su lado. Y quizá por eso le resulta tan desconcertante que su tía le haya legado lo más valioso que poseía: el relato de su vida. Y con él, una sospecha inquietante: probablemente lo más doloroso de Ágata no fueran sus mentiras, sino todo lo que eligió callar. UN SECRETO QUE SOLO PUEDE SALIR A LA LUZ DESPUÉS DE LA MUERTE
En ocho cintas de vídeo, grabadas por un joven -e irresistible documentalista, la actriz lo confiesa todo. A través de ellas, Malena podrá reconstruir no solo el pasado de su tía, sino el suyo propio. Una traición imperdonable, un secreto devastador y un amor más grande que cualquier estrella. Incluso que Ágata Belmonte. ENGLISH DESCRIPTION Passion, secrets and glamour, with Carmen Arteaga's flair for originality. A LEADING LADY BELOVED BY HER FANS Spanish film star Ágata Belmonte has died. As the country mourns its loss, her estranged niece, Malena, is obliged to return to Madrid after sixteen years to honor the memory of a woman she can't forgive.
A WOMAN DESPISED BY HER ONLY RELATIVE Ágata may have been an icon to her public, but in private she was selfish and cruel, obsessed with her image and career. Malena escaped as soon as she could and so is disconcerted to discover that she has inherited her aunt's most valuable possession: her life story. She worries, however, that Ágata's secrets may be even worse than her lies. A SECRET THAT CAN ONLY BE REVEALED POSTHUMOUSLY The actress has revealed all in eight videotapes filmed by a young and irresistible documentarian. Thanks to this testimony, Malena is able to reconstruct not only her aunt's past, but also her own. An unforgivable betrayal, a devastating secret and a love that outshines any star - even Ágata Belmonte.
